The Witcher just dropped through my letterbox 😃

@FargusPelagius bring on Bayonetta 4!

@FargusPelagius with coronovirus I don’t know when Bayonetta 3 is going to be released but if it’s October I’ll be stoked!

@Rodan2000 whenever Bayonetta 3 is released I reckon it’s going to be a cracker of a game because it’s probably the final instalment in the series.

I’ll split my time between two games this weekend. First Resident Evil 4. Love the game but the lack of gyro really annoys me and stops it from being a great play.

I’m also back on Breath of the Wild. Loving that game and I reckon I’m around halfway through.

@mazzel I’m tempted to order Xenoblade especially as they’re extra features. But I will hold off, partly as I haven’t played XC2 yet.

@RPGamer I’d love to replay Xenoblade. Maybe at the end of the Switch’s lifespan I might buy the game to experience it again. But for now I will resist!

@mazzel definitely the Wii and 3ds install base was huge. But the 3D version was only available on the “New” 3DS and the Wii version was really hard to get a hold of. So XC1 was not as well exposed as it should’ve been.

Trhis is one remake that I hope gets a lot of love. Xenoblade is such an ace game.

While I won’t double dip (sunk 200 hours into the 3D version) I’m so glad this is being released for the Switch.

This opens up XC1 to a much bigger audience. For me personally I can safely say that Xenoblade was one of my finest gaming experiences and this release means that a lot more other players can enjoy the game like I did.

@Pat84 I’ve just started Resident Evil 4 on the Switch. Good game but the lack of gyro annoys me.

I’m taking a break from BOTW (after two weeks straight) so I went back to Assassins Creed Black Flag. It’s addictive as hell.

@mcdreamer never got a Wii U, so I missed out on XCX (I’m pretty much a handheld only gamer due to work commitments).

However, having recently got a Switch (Lite), XC2 will be my game for the Autumn. I can’t wait for that and the Torna expansion pack is probably the first DLC that I will buy with the main game.

I would love to see the rest of the Xeno series remastered/released just to see the evolution of the series. One thing that is probably guaranteed either in this generation or the next - Xenoblade 3!

@mcdreamer I sunk over 200 hours into Xenoblade 3D - and I consider it one of the greatest gaming experiences ever.

As for me I am getting stuck into Breath of the Wild. I completed my first Divine Beast. I died a dozen times trying to beat that boss as I was so underprepared!

This is on my watch list. I will get it at the end of the year. I want to complete BOTW and Witcher first.

@VoodooTrumpet - agreed. Disney is a behemoth and it is clear Nintendo has already un passed the reins of their franchises to a newer generation.

Nintendo is ultimately a company. When it boils down to it, cash is king and it will do what is necessary to survive and thrive.

Breath of the Wild. Just started it this week. I’m a bit late to the Zelda party but I’m having one hell of a time!

Done. Anything to help you guys out.

Last weekend I finished Okami HD which was fantastic. This weekend I am going to knuckle down on the story of Assassins Creed Black Flag.

I’ve got caught up in all the side quests for that game, which are addictive!

@PuppyToucher I’ve got a Switch lite so I only play handheld.

I’m also a newbie to assassins creed and rebel collection is my first game.

It takes a while to get used to the controls. It’s not intuitive like Mario odyssey but after a few hours you get the hang of it. It’s blood thirsty as hell and the pirate ship sections are great fun especially if you overpower your own ship when outfitting it during the game.

I can highly recommend Assassin’s Creed the Rebel Collwction.

I’ve just now stayed up two hours after work playing Black Flag.

I got Pikuniku for me and cities skylines for my nephew because both were on sale.

Loved Pikuniku. For 4Zl (around €1) it was a blast!

I dipped into Cities Skylines. Good memories of playing Sim City 2000 but the game got bogged down by garbage collection problems and getting dead bodies to the cemetery. Weird.

Okami HD. I’m on the final land and I reckon i can complete the game in the next few days. An absolutely great purchase this really is a classic game.

Also dipping into Pikuniku which I bought last week. Hilarious game.

Great trailer. And I would buy this day one if Nintendo really developed this.

I’ll jump for To the Moon. May also get Fast Racing RMX. Both have been in my wish list for a while.

If the reviews are good I’ll get trials of mana at the end of the year. I want to complete a few games before getting into it.

This weekend I’ll be heading back to Okami HD after spending the week on Assassins Creed Black Flag I just love both of those games and alternate between the two.

I also picked up Piku Niku on sale - it cost me something like 80p. Bizarre little game but I love it!

I’ve downloaded the demo but haven’t had the chance to play it yet. Definitely looking out for this one. If the reviews are good I’ll pick it up for Christmas.

Assassins Creed Black Flag from the Rebel Collection. I’m absolutely hooked on this game and is a break from the equally addictive Okami HD.

Will also dip into Mario Odyssey as I’m on the final world and would like to beat it this weekend.

This is one game I am looking Going out for. Loved Ni No Kuni so would be up for this one.

@IceClimbers I started Black Flag this week and I am loving the game. It’s my first Assassin’s Creed game but I am hooked!

@Silly_G try getting into Xenoblade. I sunk in a lot of time into the 3DS version but it was time well spent. The story is amazing.

Over the past three weekends I’ve completed three games. Luigi’s Mansion 3, Ni No Kuni and Bayonetta 2.

So this weekend it’s a ‘new’ game - Okami HD. I picked this up in the sale a few weeks ago and I’m loving every minute of this gorgeous game.

@1UP_MARIO agreed for true discounts go physical. I bought a fair few games in 2019 for cheap before I got my Switch.

Even though my Switch is now my main system, today I cracked open the 3ds and played a little Mario & Luigi Paper Jam Bros - the last game on my 3DS backlog.

@OuTee @Gamecuber
I was not in Poland during the Wii/DS era and I do believe that Nintendo could do a lot more. However, my wife did not know Nintendo when I met her. Now my kids point at the TV when there is a Nintendo ad so at least things are on the up. More importantly you can actually buy Nintendo in the shops - I could not do that pre-Switch!

Bayonetta 2. Just started it and I’m having a blast. I finished Bayonetta 1 at the beginning of the year, so the story is still fresh for me.

Here’s hoping for Bayonetta 3 news in the ‘upcoming’ Nintendo Direct. 😉

@SmaggTheSmug I met my (Polish) wife ten years ago. When I first went to Poland back then, Nintendo was non-existent.

Now, Nintendo is aggressively marketing itself in Poland. TV ads, posters and yes, I bought my Switch in Poland.

Poland is currently Xbox country and that is going to take a lot to change. But I’ll give credit where it’s due, Nintendo has been aggressively pushing itself in Poland since the Switch launched.

I love the Bayonetta series and whilst I’ve not played any of their other IP’s I’m interested to see their developments going forward.

I sunk 200 hours into this game on the 3DS. Xenoblade is a fantastic game and for those who’ve never experienced it before, get ready for one hell of a ride!

I finished Luigi’s Mansion 3 last weekend so this weekend I want to finish Ni No Kuni. I’m on the final stretch so I think that’s doable.

Also getting into Mario Odyssey. I only got a Switch in December so I am in catch up mode. Loving that game too.

Witcher 3 is on my ‘to play list’ - I still cannot believe it is on a Nintendo system. It’s games like this that is fast making the Switch my possible all time favourite platform.

@Crozzymodo thanks for that. At its current price point I think it’s worth getting. It would be my first assassin’s creed game too.

@mr_grimm is black flag good? I’ve got my eye on that one.

Ni no Kuni as my main game as all week I’ve been blasting through Luigi’s Mansion 3.

Also I picked up Goetia on the e-shop last week when it was for sale so I will also start that.

@Late Ever Oasis is a great game but see if the cartridge is available on clearance.

A weekend of completion for me. On the Switch I should finish Blossom Tale. Over on my 3DS I am on the final boss of Hey Pikmin.

Once I finish both games, I will get back into Ni No Kuni on Switch which I got back into this week

@Kalmaro same with me. I got Mario + Rabbids over Xmas as it was so cheap. Otherwise I will always buy retail games as physical copies when available.

For me games can also have a sentimental value. So I loved Secret of Mana because I played it in my teens. Playing it now on the SNES Mini still holds me in thralls even though I can see it’s many faults in today’s gaming era.

Last generation, I have a soft spot for Fire Emblem Awakening as I was going through a lot of personal problems at the time of playing it and I felt my struggles mirrored what was going on in game.

So as a result I rarely get rid of old games, but if a new console has backwards compatibility then I do sell off the original console to free up shelf space.

Being married to a Polish girl I can safely say that Sapkowski’s bluntness is a national trait 😏

Conversely if you see Sapkowski on the Netflix interviews he seems a bit more diplomatic than he comes across in this interview.

We do have to remember that he is not a native English speaker so a lot may be lost when he tries to communicate in English.

I’ve read the books - courtesy of my wife - and that actually has me excited for Witcher 3 (which I’ll buy at the end of the year).

@dugan for the price - around a tenner - I think it’s worthwhile.

I’ve played Okamiden and despite the DS visuals I really enjoyed it so I’m really looking forward to Okami.

I’m taking a break from Ni No Kuni this weekend so it’s Bulb Boy, Mario Rabbids and Blossom Tale.

Will also pick up my 3DS and plus on with Hey Pikmin.

Downloaded Okami as I missed the chance to play this on the Wii. I played and loved Okamiden on the DS so I’m looking forward to playing it.

@ChromaticDracula agreed. The ending of Dream Team was a bit padded, but considering I picked it up for £10, I got my money’s worth and I still think it’s very underrated.

@ChromaticDracula I’ve also got Paper Jam on my 3DS backlog (along with Monster Hunter 4 and Hey Pikmin) and I usually spend one day a week focused on my 3DS to clear the backlog.

I personally had a blast with Dream Team - criminally underrated.
